arrested in Paradise, suspected of possessing drugs
By Ben Walker
April 28, 2006| Two males were arrested
in Paradise Monday morning on suspicion of driving under
the influence, possession of marijuana, possession of
drug paraphernalia and truancy.
Shawn David Wengreen, 18, was booked into Cache County
Jail and released after posting $2,000 bail. The other
suspect, a juvenile, was released to go home.
The suspects were found when someone reported a suspicious
car parked in a field.
"Deputies went out there and there was a strong odor
of marijuana," Chief Deputy Dave Bennett said. "They
did some field sobriety tests and it looks like they
didn't do too well."
Bennett said both suspects denied smoking marijuana,
but admitted to it when deputies asked why they could
smell marijuana. Bennett said there was a black bag
found in the car in which deputies found what appeared
to be marijuana as well as a glass pipe.
The car was impounded.
